At the new, 86,000 square foot Asplundh Cancer Pavilion, our cancer specialists will have access to all the tools they need to provide top-tier care under one roof, to people living with cancer and their families.

Statistics show that more than 90,000 residents of Abington’s service area have been diagnosed with cancer in their lifetimes and will require continued care and screening. After a comprehensive analysis of the community’s needs, and thorough exploration of various options for expansion of the cancer center, stakeholders agreed that building a new outpatient facility would be the best choice.
